Leica SL2 & SL3 L‑Log LUTs — Where to Download Them (Without Losing Your Mind)
TLDR; To download the Leica SL2, SL2-S and Leica SL3 LUT’s, go to their camera pages download section and scroll to Tools & Software. The download will be labeled as Leica Look Up Tables (LUT). Click the links below to locate and download the LUTs.
Why Is It So Hard to Find Leica’s LUTs?
There’s no reason it should be this difficult. You’d think a premium brand like Leica would have something as basic as L‑Log to Rec.709 LUTs in a clearly labeled, easy-to-find place. But nope. Instead, you’re forced to wander through cryptic product pages or fall into endless forum threads just to locate a .cube file.

It’s weird. It’s Leica. It’s tradition.
Here’s the Answer: Where to Download Official Leica L‑Log LUTs
After much frustration (and way too much coffee), here’s what I found:
Step-by-Step: How to Find the LUTs on Leica’s Site
Go to the Leica SL2 Downloads Page or SL3 Downloads Page.
Scroll down to Tools & Software.
Look for "Leica Look Up Tables (LUT)".
Download the ZIP package — it includes Rec.709 and Rec.2020 conversions.
What the Files Are Called (So You Don’t Miss Them)
Look for:
LUT_Classic_709.cube
LUT_Natural_709.cube
Rec2020 variants if you’re working in HDR
These aren’t creative LUTs — they’re technical conversion LUTs designed to normalize your L‑Log footage before color grading.
What’s Included in the Leica LUT Pack?
The official Leica LUT download includes:
Classic and Natural profiles
Rec.709 and Rec.2020 versions
.cube format, usable in Premiere Pro, Resolve, Final Cut, etc.
They're clean, accurate, and match Leica's L‑Log gamma perfectly — making them ideal for monitoring or a neutral color base.
Are There Better Third-Party LUTs?
Leica’s LUTs are solid for technical conversion, but if you’re looking for more stylized or workflow-specific options:
XtremeStuff LUT Pack – Advanced Rec.709 and HDR LUTs
Gamut.io Leica BaseLUTs – Built for professional grading pipelines
Christopher.Camera – Cinematic Leica LUTs for easy one-click looks
How to Use Leica LUTs in Premiere Pro
Import your L‑Log footage.
Apply a Lumetri Color effect.
Under Basic Correction, load the LUT via the Input LUT dropdown.

.cubefile (Classic or Natural Rec.709 recommended for SDR work).Adjust exposure/contrast after applying to taste.

Final Thoughts: Leica Makes It Hard (But Worth It)
Leica cameras are amazing — no doubt. But they do seem to enjoy keeping just enough mystery in the mix to make sure you really earn your stripes. Finding the L‑Log LUTs shouldn’t feel like a secret side quest… but if it did, congrats — you’ve officially unlocked the treasure. Hope this helped!
